27 of 27 figures sit in a row or column sum that works out.
p. 229. Eleven columns: stub plus five case-type panels (All R, RC, RM, RD, UD), each with a Number and a Percent column.\n\nDecimal points: in this scan the decimal point in nearly every percent value is reduced to a faint gap, so the figures read visually as \"100 0\", \"49 8\", etc. Only \"1.7\" (RC percent, last row) shows the period clearly. These are one-decimal percentages (the column sums confirm it), so they are transcribed with decimal points: e.g. the printed form of the All R percent in the total row appears as \"100 0\" and is given here as \"100.0\".\n\nDash rules: three percent cells hold a printed dash rule rather than a value and are given as \"\" — RD percent in \"After hearing closed, before issuance of decision\", and UD percent in both \"After hearing closed, before issuance of decision\" and \"After issuance of Board decision\". The corresponding Number cells in those positions hold a printed 0 and are transcribed as 0.\n\nArithmetic check (not corrected, only verified): every panel's five stage rows sum exactly to its printed total, and every percent column sums to 100.0, so no misprint is suspected.\n\nRow labels: the scan degrades some letters (\"Befoie\", \"Aftei\", \"heaiing\"); the words are plainly \"Before\", \"After\", \"hearing\" and are written normally.\n\nThe caption carries footnote marker 1, which is recorded with the caption and so is omitted here; footnote 1 itself is transcribed.
